Empire Earl N (Ray Fisher Jr.) enjoyed the lead through opening splits of :28.3 and :59.1. Majestic Kat drafting along in second, popped the pocket down the backstretch and took command, hitting the three-quarter pole in 1:27.4.

From there, Majestic Kat left little doubt who was in charge, strutting off to the easy win. Wheels A Turning (Shawn Gray) picked up the place position with Empire Earl N holding on for third.
